In the 2009-2010 season Rundblad had 13 points, 1 goal 12 assists, in 47 games in the SEL.
In the off-season he was traded for Tarasenko (the 16th overall pick at the draft).
In the 2010-2011 season he had 50 points in 55 games in the SEL. He lead the league in assists and was third in points.
Rundblad was a former first rounder, who was traded for a first rounder before massively breaking out and then he was traded for Turris.
Take a look at the trade thread:

Those are posts just on the first page. Of course hindsight is 20/20 when dealing with prospects, but at the time Rundblad for Turris looked like an even deal with both players having huge upside, not the deal that it's being portrayed as now.
